Question
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a measure of
health on weight. It can be calculated by taking your weight in kilograms and
dividing, by the square of your height in meters. Write a
user to enter a weight in pounds and height in inches and displays the BMI. Note
one pound is 0.45359237 kilograms and one inch is 0.0254 meters. Here is a
sample run:
Enter weight in pounds: 95.5 ↵Enter
Enter height in inches: 50 ↵Enter
BMI is 26.8573

- Part A: Create a program that prompts the user to input the retail price of an item. Next, prompt them to enter the current discount for the item as a percentage. Then, output the new price with discount applied. A sample program run follows: enter the retail price : 55.75 enter the discount ( as a percentage ) : 12 the discounted price is 49.06 Part B: Create a program that prompts the user to input 4 quiz scores, then outputs the average of the scores. Be sure to format your output to display 1 place after the decimal.arrow_forwardCreate a program that allows the user to enter a person's age (in years) and current salary. Both Next, you plan the algorithm and then desk-check it. Figure 8-15 shows the completed IPO algorithm contains two loops. The outer loop keeps track of the three annual raise rates (3%, 4%, chart and desk-check table, which (for simplicity) uses an age of 62 and a salary of $25000. The before retirement at age 65, using annual raise rates of 3%, 4%, and 5%. To calculate then for the input. In this case, the program should display a person's total earnings in Figure 8-15. You begin by analyzing the problem, looking first for the output and In this lab, you will plan and create an algorithm for the problem specification shown Frepure 8-15 Problem specification, IPO chart, and desk-check table for the retirement algorithm (continues) and 5%).

The birth rate is the percentage increase of the population due to births and the death rate is the percentage decrease of the population due to deaths. Write a program that displays the size of a population for any number of years. The program should ask for the following data: The starting size of a population P The annual birth rate (as a percentage of the population expressed as a fraction in decimal form)B The annual death rate (as a percentage of the population expressed as a fraction in decimal form)D The average annual number of people who have arrived A The average annual number of people who have moved away M The number of years to display nYears Write a function that calculates the size of the population after a year. To calculate the new population after one year, this function should use the formulaN = P + BP - DP + A - Mwhere N is the…arrow_forward
